I want to create DEMs with different interpolation methods for comparision. Actually I created DEM in GRASS using spline tension. Then I want to create DEM in R with different techniques to compare. But my data seems so huge for GSTAT-kriging and FIELDS-krig. So I decided to select smaller interpolation area within whole data. How can I define a subregion in which I do interpolation ? I found locator and chull function that may serve this. I will regard your recommendations. PS : Thinking facing a memory problem, I refrained from GRASS-R interface. -- Ahmet Temiz -- This message has been scanned for viruses and\ dangerous con...{{dropped}}
